ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Physical activity and physical functioning have been reported to change over retirement transition, but the results have been inconsistent, and the two constructs have not been studied concurrently. The objective of this study was to examine concurrent changes in…

Stress. 2023 Oct 25:1-12. doi: 10.1080/10253890.2023.2275207. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Maternal prenatal distress (PD), frequently defined as in utero prenatal stress exposure (PSE) to the developing fetus, influences the developing brain and numerous associations between PSE and brain structure have been described both in neonates and in older children.

Dev Psychobiol. 2023 Nov;65(7):e22419. doi: 10.1002/dev.22419. ABSTRACT Social touch is closely related to the establishment and maintenance of social bonds in humans, and the sensory brain circuit for gentle brushing is already active soon after birth.

J Pediatr. 2023 Oct 13:113776. doi: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2023.113776. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT This 26-year study found that non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels tracked from infancy to young adulthood, suggesting early-life non-HDL-C could predict future levels. However, infancy-onset dietary counseling reduced the odds of maintaining at-risk non-HDL-C, highlighting the potential importance…
